HAPPY THURSDAY !

This week is rolling along...quiet, and muggy.  It feels best when I stay indoors.  However, I've been trying to get out and walk in the evenings and when I do, I need a shower afterwards.  Of course I reward myself with an ice cream cone too !

Have a great day all !  Another wonderful one on the Way !

 

TODAY IS…BISON LOVERS DAY The bison (buffalo) is the largest land mammal in North America. Before settlers moved across the continent, their herd size was about 30 million animals that provided meat, clothes, shoes, houses, and tools for Native Americans. Unregulated killing reduced their number to about 1,500 by the late 1800s. Legal protection and refuge preserves have helped restore the population to over 350,000 animals today.

P.S. I Love You

Love is like wildflowers. It’s often found in the most unlikely places.

To get more out of life, give more of yourself.

Don’t be afraid to go out on a limb. That’s where the fruit is.

You’ll learn more about a road by traveling it than by consulting all the maps in the world.

When fate shuts a door, come in through the window.

No failure is ever final, nor is any success.

If you’re doing your best, you won’t have time to worry about failure.

Dreams come true for those who work while they dream.

No one is guaranteed happiness, life just gives us time and space. It’s up to us to fill it with joy and meaning.

Do for others with no desire of returned favors.

We all should plant some trees we’ll never sit under.

True wealth is what you are, not what you have.

Almost all of our unhappiness is the result of comparing ourselves to others.

We can’t do much about our appearance, but we have total control over the kind of person we become.

To change everything, simply change your attitude.

Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye.

Carrying a grudge is like a run in a stocking – it can only get worse.

Forgiveness is the answer.

When you remember how hard it is to change yourself, you begin to understand what little chance we have of changing others.

Instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers, why not gather your own bouquet.

A friend is a person who knows all about you but likes you anyway.

Friends are like a beautiful garden. They require regular care.

The people on our planet are not standing in a line single file. Look closely, everyone is really standing in a circle, holding hands.

Whatever you can give to the person standing next to you, it eventually comes back to you.

Today, give a stranger one of your smiles, it might be the only sunshine they see all day.

p.s. I Love You

TODAY’S REFLECTION

Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.

Proverbs 16:3

Are you making plans for your future? You may think that you have all the answers, but you would be wise to avoid moving too quickly.

Take time to talk it over with the Lord and surrender to his leadership. Our Creator knows how to make the best use of the gifts he has given you.

I Love You All !!!
